Foreign garment manufacture
Interesting research Torchwatch.
Even more interesting to know what amount of Regulations exist out there
but just how much they are flouted.
As this seems to come from Dhaka 13th April 2013 there is a certain
poignancy in Bangladesh's recent tragedy and the death toll is now a dreadful 1000+.
(I refer not to fire but the sudden collapse of an eight storey building containing five garment factories - it was a five storey building to which
three extra floors were illegally added).
These are the realities of the trade which we don't think about when buying our dirt-cheap T shirts.
